We sadly lost 1990s icon James Van Der Beek in February, so we decided it was time to look at his most prominent non-Dawson's Creek role - the teen comedy-drama sports movie Varsity Blues. Released very early in the year on January 15th, Varsity Blues was the 45th highest grossing movie of the year. Opening as a surprise number, it made back most of its 16 million dollar budget in its debut weekend and would go on to gross an impressive 54 million dollars worldwide, but it really became a summertime hit in its home video release in June. Also starring Jon Voight, Paul Walker, Ron Lester, Scott Caan, Amy Smart, Ali Larter, and a little baby Jesse Plemons, and featuring an incredibly 1999 soundtrack including Foo Fighters, Green Day, Collective Soul, Third Eye Blind and Fastball, Varsity Blues has something of a cult status, in part due to one very memorable line delivery. But how does it hold up as a teen movie or a sports film? This week, our friend Jacki Krestel joins us to talk sports, teens, 90s tropes, and James Van Der Beek. Jack writes about baseball on her blog, Jack Likes Baseball.
Listen, Will Smith was just trying to buy Christmas presents for his wife and son. But then Jon Voight murdered a senator and a guy studying geese accidentally gave him the tape and now the entire NSA is tracking him with satellites. I don't know if you really need to know more than that, but it's basically Three Days of the Condor if Robert Redford was replaced by the Fresh Prince and the whole thing was directed by a man that paints the camera lens orange.Tony Scott, who we have controversially said was the better Scott, continues to keep his batting average up for one of the hosts of this podcast. The other one has... Some thoughts. Also Gene Hackman is playing the same character from The Conversation 24 years later but nobody can legally say that. It's all pretty serious stuff in this movie, but the case is bizarrely all the future comedy stars from the 00's. Somehow it all works, for one of us at least. That's right, it's time for 1998's ENEMY OF THE STATE.If you'd like to advertise with us or sponsor us, please e-mail greatbadmoviesshow@gmail.comSubscribe to Great Bad Movies wherever you listen to podcastsMore Great Bad Movies online:InstagramGreat Bad Movies WebsiteYouTubeEmail us at greatbadmoviesshow@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

We tried to be wholesome for Pink Shirt Day, but it quickly devolved into Clint insulting Meg and Dan being compared to a 65-year-old movie villain. Throw in a stylist roasting Dan’s "naked piglet" shirt and a very awkward round of "Guess the Fart," and you’ve got a classic office spiral. You aren’t ready for this one. 00:00 – The "stupidest noise" stitch-up and the oily duck debate. 01:30 – Pink Shirt Day: Trying (and failing) to do a "nice" Pass the Mic. 03:15 – Dan’s "glow-up" or "illness recovery" look? 04:50 – The Holes comparison: Does Dan look like Jon Voight? 06:45 – Clint’s secret mustache hack: Using mascara to hide the grays. 08:20 – Meg’s "hard worker" reputation vs. her "whinging" reality. 10:10 – Stylist Georgette drops in to roast Dan’s "naked piglet" peach shirt. 12:30 – AI vs. Professional color analysis. 14:00 – The ultimate shame: "Guess the Fart" in front of a guest.
Chosen by Chris, Heat arrived in 1995 as Michael Mann's grand, granite-jawed crime epic: a nearly three-hour Los Angeles thriller with the emotional temperature of a fridge full of loaded handguns. Produced by Mann and Art Linson, the film brought together Al Pacino and Robert De Niro on-screen for the first time, backed by a frankly ridiculous ensemble including Val Kilmer, Jon Voight, Tom Sizemore, Ashley Judd, Amy Brenneman, Wes Studi, Mykelti Williamson and Ted Levine. With a reported budget of around $60 million, this was not some cosy little cops-and-robbers caper; it was prestige crime cinema wearing an expensive suit and staring silently out over the freeway.Mann shot Heat across Los Angeles with an obsessive eye for real streets, glass towers, night skies and urban loneliness, giving the city the feel of a living, humming machine. The production became famous for its realism, its meticulous preparation and its muscular sense of place, while the film went on to earn strong reviews, solid box office returns and a lasting reputation as one of the defining American crime films of the 1990s. Its influence can still be felt in modern heist films, police thrillers and brooding men looking meaningfully at skylines.Trailer Guy Plot SynopsisIn a city where every streetlight hides a secret, one master thief lives by a code: never get attached to anything you cannot walk away from in thirty seconds flat.But when a relentless detective begins closing in, two men on opposite sides of the law discover they may understand each other better than anyone else ever could. One hunts. One runs. Both are trapped by the lives they chose.This winter, Los Angeles becomes a battlefield of loyalty, obsession, coffee, suits, guns, and the sort of emotional repression that can only be solved by staring across a table like two divorced panthers.Fun FactsHeat was adapted from ideas Michael Mann had explored years earlier in his 1989 TV film L.A. Takedown.The character Neil McCauley was inspired by a real criminal pursued by Chicago police officer Chuck Adamson.Despite both appearing in The Godfather Part II, Pacino and De Niro did not share scenes in that film, making Heat their first proper on-screen pairing.The famous diner conversation was shot with multiple cameras to capture both actors' performances naturally.The film's long runtime meant its original VHS release had to be split across two tapes, which feels deeply appropriate for a film this committed to being massive.Dante Spinotti's cinematography uses natural and practical lighting to give the film its cool, metallic Los Angeles atmosphere.Kate Mantilini, the restaurant used for the iconic meeting scene, later closed in 2014.Christopher Nolan has cited Heat as an influence on his approach to Gotham City in The Dark Knight.The film's weapon handling and shootout sequences are often praised for their realism and have become a benchmark for crime-action filmmaking.MUSICCheckout the parody music from the show on Spotify here.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon here.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

Dr. Adam Dorsay's Psychologically Rich TV Picks: Bill Lawrence, Ray Donovan, and Jury DutyDr. Adam Dorsay, Silicon Valley psychologist and host of the SuperPsyched podcast, shares recent TV recommendations he finds psychologically rich. He highlights Bill Lawrence as a hero behind comfort shows like Scrubs and Ted Lasso, praises Lawrence's new series Rooster with Steve Carell, and recommends the darker, mysterious comedy Bad Monkey starring Vince Vaughn on Apple TV. He discusses Scrubs returning with recreated sets in British Columbia and renewed cast dynamics, noting its modern medical themes and its reputation for medical accuracy. He also enjoys Shrinking for its relationships despite questionable psychotherapy realism. Moving darker, he recommends Ray Donovan for its pitch-perfect portrayal of family dysfunction and standout performances by Liev Schreiber and Jon Voight, comparing its quality to The Sopranos. He closes with Jury Duty, a Truman Show-like semi-reality comedy, and invites listener feedback and subscriptions.00:00 Welcome to SuperPsyched00:27 TV Geek Picks00:51 Bill Lawrence Highlights01:33 Bad Monkey Spotlight02:13 Scrubs Returns03:35 Why Shrinking Works04:34 Going Dark Ray Donovan07:03 Wild Comedy Jury Duty08:18 Wrap Up and Subscribe

Savage delivers a "stream of consciousness" talk, saying he turns from suffocating political "hysterical realism" to literature, music, and free association. He compares the poetic style of Isaiah to the technique he brought to radio in 1994, criticizing today's one-dimensional political commentators. He then praises Trump's "borders, language, culture" message and calls for stronger force to clean up cities. He shares about his movie cameo with Jon Voight, and ends on a faith-themed line: God can change fate "in the blink of an eye." Call (855) GOLD-099 or go to GetSavageGold.com right now.

On the Hollywood Godfather podcast, hosts Gianni and Jeanie welcome back filmmaker Miles Stephenson, who discusses his documentary The Real Godfather about Joe Colombo and how the making of The Godfather intersected with New York's mafia. Gianni shares stories from his youth, including receiving a radio from Carlo Gambino while quarantined at Bellevue, killing a pedophile that led to his release, and being protected and supported by Frank Costello, who later gifted him a million dollars and left him an apartment. Miles describes his family's emphasis on education, his mentorship experiences interviewing Jon Voight for a Robert Duvall documentary, and promotes his Instagram. He announces a novel in progress about the Romanian mafia's origins under communist Romania, outlines his research approach, and the hosts caution him about safety and offer help and contacts.

Pop culture chaos meets nostalgic media as we revisit the most unhinged jungle thriller of the 90s. Natalie and Angela dive headfirst into Anaconda (1997), breaking down everything from Jennifer Lopez's iconic moments to Jon Voight's absolutely feral performance. What starts as a film crew's Amazon adventure quickly spirals into snake-fueled madness, questionable accents, and some of the wildest cinematic choices ever made. The hosts unpack the bizarre plot twists, unforgettable one-liners, and why this movie somehow works despite… everything. From Owen Wilson's early acting missteps to Ice Cube's scene-stealing commentary, nothing is off-limits. Along the way, they share hilarious personal stories, behind-the-scenes reflections, and why this film remains a must-watch for anyone who loves chaotic, nostalgic entertainment. If you love over-the-top thrillers, accidental comedy, and pure 90s energy, this episode is your perfect excuse to put your books down and press play.
Before Benj Thall was cutting trailers at some of the most influential shops in the business, he was a working child actor starring in Disney's Homeward Bound films alongside legends like Leslie Nielsen and Ned Beatty. That early life on film sets didn't just give him screen credits — it gave him a love for every corner of the craft that eventually led him behind the camera, through film school at USC, and into the edit bay. In this episode, Corey and Benj trace a career that spans Global Doghouse, Harley's House/Ignition, Mojo, and Monster, and dig into what it means to carry a trailer editor's sensibility into feature film cutting. Benj also shares the story behind Monument, the political thriller starring Jon Voight and Joe Mazzello that he edited — a deeply personal project that connects his love of storytelling, his actor's instincts, and his late father's memory. Key Takeaways The edit bay as classroom. Benj's early days at Global Doghouse meant literally knocking on Kevin Childress or Doug Brandt's door to make dubs — and using every excuse to watch them cut. Proximity to great editors, not formal training, was the real education. Emotional truth is the through line. Whether cutting a two-minute trailer or a two-hour feature, Benj is always hunting the same thing: the moment an audience doesn't know what comes next. That instinct, sharpened over decades of trailer work, is exactly what he argues trailer editors bring to features that classically trained film editors often don't. Shops shape artists. Global Doghouse and Harley's House weren't just workplaces — they were creative environments that challenged editors to push against convention. Benj credits the culture at both shops, as much as any individual mentor, for forming his aesthetic. Knowing when you're too close. On Monument, Benj cut his own trailer for the film he edited — then pressed the producers to bring in a second editor because he recognized he was too close to the material. That kind of self-awareness is rare, and he makes the case for why it matters. Trailer skills are transferable — and increasingly valued. From working with stems and sculpting music in the rough cut to getting creative out of under-covered scenes, Benj sees a real and growing appetite for trailer editors in feature post. The hustle is different, but the toolkit is more relevant than ever. Standout Quotes "It's gotta be those quick moments of emotional impact for me." "Different parts of a movie are gonna speak differently to everyone. You're looking for those universal moments that speak to all of our humanity." "I've fallen in love with cutting features. If you've got a two-actor scene, the third actor is the editor." "I pressed the production — we need to get another look. I am too close to the material." "To probably my financial detriment, I've never been locked down. But for a creative, it's about staying open to opportunities that might come."

Jon Voight joins the Ignatius Press podcast to discuss what it was like to portray arguably the most influential man of the 20th century—Pope St. John Paul II. RENT Movie Here: https://ignatius.com/pope-john-paul-ii-pjpiir/ STREAM Movie Here: https://ignatius.com/pope-john-paul-ii-digital-pjpiis/ Purchase DVD Here: https://ignatius.com/pope-john-paul-ii-pjpiim/?searchid=4550843&search_query=john+paul+II Jon Voight is a renowned actor, having won an Academy Award and multiple Golden Globe Awards. But what many don't know is that Pope St. John Paul II handpicked Jon to portray him in an earlier film project. While this original project never panned out, Jon Voight later accepted this role in a different film titled “Pope John Paul II” recounting the life of this great saint. We are honored to talk to Jon about his portrayal of John Paul II in this film and how this role brought him great peace and joy. Jon beautifully highlights the immense holiness of the pontiff and shares personal stories of meeting Pope Benedict XVI and Cardinal Dziwisz (JPII's right hand man). Finally, Jon Voight promotes Pope St. John Paul II as a model particularly for young people as we face Communism and other great evils in our own time. This movie is truly masterfully acted and filmed, and it is one of the best ways to remember Pope St. John Paul II and be inspired by his life in Christ.

Ok, most cunning and perceptive listeners, Max and Mike desperately need your help this week. Yes, through exhaustive research (following YouTube threads) and careful observation (watching Nicholas Cage movies), we've uncovered an ancient conspiracy involving the fate of the Necco wafer factory! Necco wafers: essential both as dry, chalky candy treats and makeshift poker chips. Yes, wake up, sheeple! You've been lied to! This is big, folks; it involves the Illuminati, the Rosicrucians, the Knights of Pythias, the Order of Free Gardeners, and That Weird Guy Bob Who Hangs Out Down By the Stop and Shop. Oh, this is a big one, folks, way bigger than the trivial nonsense in this week's movie about a secret being printed on the back of the Declaration of Independence and Nick Cage trying to steal it! Pah! We're finally going to reveal why Necco wafers were crushed back in 2003, vanishing from the earth . . . excuse me? Hah? Oh. They just moved the factory to Revere, Massachusetts? And they're still making Necco wafers? Ok . . . well, this is awkward. Ummm . . . hey, have you noticed that “Necco” is an anagram for “Ocean” . . . if you turn one of the c's into an a . . .? Hoo boy . . . well, uh, maybe just give a listen to our talk about a slightly less absurd conspiracy theory movie which raises the question: do you buy Jon Voight as Nick Cage's father? Poll question: What's your favorite “treasure hunt” movie?
For our 300th episode, Not A Bomb takes a moment to look back on nearly six years of exploring overlooked and misunderstood films. Brad and Troy reflect on the evolution of the show, the community that has grown around it, and the conversations that have shaped its identity.To mark the milestone, the episode revisits Michael Mann's Heat (1995) — a film that has long been part of the podcast's internal history. Though never a “bomb,” Heat is a work whose reputation has deepened over time, making it a fitting choice for this moment. The discussion examines the film's legacy, performances, craftsmanship, and themes, drawing on ideas explored in past blog posts while offering new perspective.Episode 300 serves as both a celebration and a reaffirmation of the show's purpose: to give films the thoughtful attention they deserve and to continue discovering the stories behind them.Heat is directed by Michael Mann and stars Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Tom Sizemore, Diane Brenneman, Ashley Judd, Mykelti Williamson, Wes Studi, Ted Levine, Jon Voight, and Val KilmerSupport the ShowWant to help support the show?

Tonight on Triple Feature, we're covering three football movies from the late '80s and '90s that approach the sport from very different angles: Varsity Blues, The Program, and Necessary Roughness.Varsity Blues, directed by Brian Robbins and written by W. Peter Iliff, was released in 1999, stars James Van Der Beek, Jon Voight, Paul Walker, and Scott Caan, and made about $54 million on a roughly $16 million budget. It's the small-town Texas football movie — pressure, injuries, and a tyrant coach — that became a cult staple.The Program, released in 1993, was directed by David S. Ward and stars James Caan, Omar Epps, Craig Sheffer, Kristy Swanson, and Halle Berry. It aimed for a darker, more realistic look at college football, steroids, and exploitation, grossing around $23 million and becoming best known for its controversies rather than its box office.And Necessary Roughness, from 1991, directed by Stan Dragoti, stars Scott Bakula, Robert Loggia, Sinbad, and Kathy Ireland. It's the disgraced-team rebuild comedy, made for about $13 million and earning roughly $25 million, and it helped codify a formula Hollywood would reuse endlessly.Three movies, three tones, three decades of football storytelling — let's get into it.Disclaimer: The following may contain offensive language, adult humor, and/or content that some viewers may find offensive – The views and opinions expressed by any one speaker does not explicitly or necessarily reflect or represent those of Mark Radulich or W2M Network.Mark Radulich and his wacky podcast on all the things:https://linktr.ee/markkind76alsohttps://www.teepublic.com/user/radulich-in-broadcasting-networkFB Messenger: Mark Radulich LCSWTiktok: @markradulichtwitter: @MarkRadulichInstagram: markkind76RIBN Album Playlist: https://suno.com/playlist/91d704c9-d1ea-45a0-9ffe-5069497bad59

Ronald Reagan first visited the Berlin Wall in 1978, during the Carter administration. While there, he reportedly told his aides: “We've got to find a way to bring this down,” says Mark Joseph, producer of the 2024 film “Reagan.”“Reagan” is a biographical movie starring Dennis Quaid as Ronald Reagan and Jon Voight as KGB agent Viktor Petrovich.In this episode, Joseph shares why it took nearly 20 years to bring this film to the big screen, and what it was like to film during the height of COVID-era restrictions.Joseph, who's also the founder of MJM Entertainment, is the author of “Making Reagan: A Memoir From the Producer of the Reagan Film.”The movie is based on Paul Kengor's book “The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism.”That book, Joseph said, helped him understand Reagan and his passionate drive to end what he called the “evil empire,” the Soviet Union.“There have been hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of books written on Ronald Reagan, but Kengor was the only one who went to the church Reagan grew up in and said: ‘Can I see the sermons that young Ronald Reagan would have heard as a child?' And the current pastor said they're in the basement, in the box. Nobody has ever asked to see them before.' So when he opened the box, he found a lot of anti-communist sermons by the preacher,” Joseph said.The film received sharply divided reviews: On “Rotten Tomatoes,” 98 percent of the audience gives a positive rating, but only 18 percent of critics' reviews are positive.That may be a new record.“We have the greatest gap between critics and film goers of any movie ever made in Hollywood history. ... I'm really proud of that. I don't make movies for critics. I make movies for the film goers,” Joseph said.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

Marking the film's 30th anniversary, this episode revisits Heat's opening heist through its final standoff. We unpack why Michael Mann's crime drama remains essential viewing and how Al Pacino and Robert De Niro anchor a sprawling ensemble, including Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, Jon Voight, Amy Brenneman, and Ashley Judd, among others. We explore Michael Mann's meticulous production design, LA as a character, and the meticulous pacing that keeps Heat tactile and immersive—featuring insights into how the film's cast brings those pages to life. We also explore the coming together of two screen legends navigating duty, honor, and obsession in a film built around restraint as much as firepower. We break down the chemistry between Pacino and De Niro, and how it became the cornerstone of the film's marketing campaign. Joining in for this discussion is Dustin Rybka, one of the new co-hosts of our upcoming spinoff, and he helps dive into why Heat is still considered one of the best movies of its kind 30 years later.Where To Watch Heat

In honor of its upcoming 30th Anniversary next month, here is our newly remastered (with additional content) review of one of The Greatest Films Ever!“Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner….” – Neil McCauley, 1995And that's the apparent thesis for one of the most beloved films of the past thirty years spoken by living legend Robert DeNiro sitting across from fellow living legend Al Pacino. Or is it really the main theme of the movie? Maybe it's just something cool-sounding that a tough guy says but doesn't really follow through on….director Michael Mann examines that very question among so many others during this almost three hour crime epic focusing on the brewing conflict between two self-obsessed master tacticians on both sides of the law…and the women who love them….along with every one else whose lives they impact. This STACKED cast also includes Val Kilmer, Diana Venora, Amy Brenneman, Tom Sizemore, Jon Voight, Wes Studi, Dennis Haysbert, Mykelti Williamson, Danny Trejo, and Ted Levine among SO many others. Let's find out if The Action Really IS The Juice…..Host: Geoff GershonEdited By Ella GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a textSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

This is our final film review of Season 7, and we decided to go out with a bang: a bizarre labor of love that provokes as much confusion as it does admiration. A film fifty years in the making, equal parts science fiction, political allegory, and personal manifesto from one of the greatest living directors. It's proof that some people still haven't processed 9/11, and quite possibly the only place you'll see an Asian Elvis impersonator singing “America the Beautiful.” It's Megalopolis, written, directed, produced, and funded by the legendary Francis Ford Coppola.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media
